Give Them A Chance !

That is to say, your lungs. Also
all your breathing machinery. Very
wonderful machinery it is. Not only
the larger air-passages, but the thou
sands of little tubes and cavities lead
ing from them. When these are
clogged and choked with matter
which ought not to be there, your
lungs cannot half do their work
And what they do, they cannot do
well. Call it cold, cough, Group,
pneumonia, catarrh, consumption or
any of the family Of throat and nose
and head and lung obstructions, all
are bad. All ought to be got rid Of.
There is just one sure way to get rid
of them. That is to take Boscbee's
German Syrup, which any druggist
will sell you at 10 cents q bottle.
Even if everything else has failed
you, you may depend upon this for
certain.

A Wise Granger.
From Meadville Herald

From Meadville Herald.
Not q thousand miles from Dutch
Hill lives a man who is the possessor
of large pasture field. Some of his
neighbors are not abundantly suppli-
ed with pasture, and scheme was
worked on their more fortunate neigh
Dor, When darkness had settled
down on the face of the earth, cows
would be tured into his field, where
they would be allowed to Craze, and
the gentle kline would be taken from
the field before the rising of the morn
ing sun. What was to be done! The
man with the large field didn't wish
to create dissatisfaction in the neigh
borhood, and planned to overcome
the difficulty. He turned his calves
into his pasture, and they had free ac-
cess to the udders of the cows which
mysteriously found their way into
his field at night. His neighbor's
COWS don't bother him any more.

Another Lincoln Story.
From the Toledo Blade.

When Abraham Lincoln was O
clerk in dry goods store he sold q
woman little bill of goods, amount.
ing in value by the reckoning to
$2,0e4. He received the money and
the woman went away. On adding
the items of the bill again to make
himself sure of correctness, he found
that he had taken 6 1 cents too much
1t was night, but closing and lock.
ing the store, he started out on foot,
a distance oftwo or three miles, for
the house of his defrauded customer,
and, delivering over to her the sum
whose possession had 30 much troub'
led him, went home satisfied. This
is very humble incident, but it illus
trates the mans perfect conscientious.
ness, his sensitive honesty, better
perhaps than if it had been of greater
moment.

THE CITIZEN.
MISCELLANEOUS.
Mr.. Greeley's Sense of Humor
Joel Benton, in the July Cosmopolitan.

Joel Benton in the July Cosmopolitan.
Mr.. Greeley's sense of humor was
of a peculiar sort, but it was allied to
genius. So many anecdotes have
been told of him in illustration OF
this, that one can hardly expect to
produce any now that some one has
not repeated. Those who tried to
Joke with him to his disadvantage
were generally worsted, whether they
did it orally or through the press.
One evening an associate editor OF
the Tribune accosted him as be came
into his desk with some such ques-
tions as this
Didn't you know, Mr.. Gaeeley.
that YOU made dreadful blunder in
one of the statistical editorials this
morning.
"No; how was it ?" said Mr..
Greeley.
"Why, you said something about
'Heidsieck and champagne Don't you
know Heidsieck is champagne 2"
"Well," said Mr.. Greeley quietly,
81 am the only editor on this paper
that could make that mistake"
On another occasion person who
wished to have little fun at the ex-
pense of his consistency, said in q
group where Mr.. Greeley was stand
ing:
"Mr. Greeley and I, gentlemen,
are old friends We have drunk a
good deal of brandy and water to-
gether."
"Yes," said Mr.. Greeley, "that is
true enough. You drank the brandy
and drank the water"
Tobacco was his especial dis
like; and, friend of mine knowing
this well, while handing around a
box of cigars to a few who were
present with Mr.. Greeley, took es.
pecial pains to hand him the box
with great ostentation.

you. I haven't got so low down as
that yet. l only drink and swear"

tion of charge that must have been
much exaggerated and purposely dis,
torted (for it was favorite imputa-
tion against him with many,) that |,
at least, never heard him use exple-
tives that could not be repeated in q
refined circle. He had as justifable
occasions, though, for objurgatory
epithets as any one ever knew; and
| if be had not sometimes spoken
vehemently he would have been
truly angelic His handwriting, in
spite of all that was said of it, was
not the worst in the world but it
was very nearly the homeliest, 1t
was fairly appalling to look at. But
it Gid have a somewhat uniform al
phabet. Almost all the words, like a
certain one IN Rufus Choate's pen
manship, looked like "grid-irons struck
by lightning" But when you once
discovered the key to this chirogra-
ply, it was not 30 very hard to read.
The stories about it, though, are
more numerous than the fables of
Esop.
